Travel: NSF Student Travel Grant for 2023 IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization (IISWC)

本提案的目的是申请旅行支持基金，以帮助来自美国院校的本科生和研究生参加2023年IEEE工作量表征国际研讨会（IISWC）。会议将于2023年10月在比利时根特举行。IISWC是理解和描述在所有类型的计算系统上运行的工作负载的主要论坛。感兴趣的主题包括但不限于领域应用的特征；新兴工作负载和架构；工作量对设计问题的影响；标杆创建与评估；OS/VMM、中间件和库行为的表征；测量工具和技术。该奖项将为参加此次活动的约20名美国学生提供旅行支持。遴选过程将优先考虑美国公民和永久居民，特别考虑代表性不足的群体成员和来自在会议所涵盖的主题领域没有强大传统的大学的参与者，以扩大会议的参与范围。参加本次研讨会的学生将受益于他们出席活动所提供的丰富的互动和网络/指导机会。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The purpose of this proposal is to request travel support funds that will help undergraduate and graduate students from US-based institutions to attend and participate in the 2023 IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization (IISWC). The conference will be held in October 2023 in Ghent, Belgium.. IISWC is the premier forum for understanding and characterization of workloads that run on all types of computing systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to characterization of applications in domains; emerging workloads and architectures; implications of workloads in design issues; benchmark creation and evaluation; characterization of OS/VMM, middleware and library behavior; measurement tools and techniques.The award is to provide travel support for around 20 U.S.-based students attending this event. The selection process will give priority to US citizens and permanent residents, with special consideration to members of under-represented groups and participants from universities that do not have a strong tradition in the topical areas covered in the conference, in order to expand the scope of the conference participation. Students attending this workshop will benefit from the rich interactions and networking/mentoring opportunities afforded by their presence at the event.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
